My Students

Our students are AWESOME! They are unique, creative, and talented. They come from all walks of life. We have a wonderful school and are surrounded by supportive parents and family members. Our school operates just like a community. We provide for our students emotionally, mentally, physically and educationally. The well-being of our students is our top priority.

We are a school that is dedicated to creating 21st century learners.

We can only do this if we have updated materials and resources. We need to provide students with the best opportunities possible to learn how to use technology effectively and responsibly.

Our school has approximately 450 students. We have four self-contained special needs classes, as well as one preschool class. Our teachers all have diverse backgrounds and exhibit a variety of teaching styles. Our teachers do a wonderful job of differentiating for our students!

My Project

Our students are avid readers and visit the media center quite frequently. I try to keep books as up to date, current and well-kept as possible. However, because our books are so well-loved we are in need of new books. We need to not only replace the books that are torn or in bad shape, but we need to add to our current book collection.

Books that are in a series, like Judy Moody and Captain Underpants, leave children wanting MORE!

When children get hooked on a book in a series they tend to want to continue reading the series to find out what happens to the characters. Their motivation for reading increases. Books in a series tend to develop the characters and plots as the books go along. This helps to capture the attention of the students and increase their love for reading.

The books that I am requesting will appeal to a variety of students, as some of them are fiction, and some are nonfiction. I included books that have been requested, as well as books they have never seen.

It is incredibly important to foster a love for reading at an early age. I hope that by trying to provide my students with new material they will continue to come to the library and check out books as much possible.

Thank you!

Mrs. Greene
Grades 3-5
